Finding and Telling Stories Using Data Visualisation

Anyone with spreadsheet software can create charts. But poorly designed visuals can be damaging, leading to confusion and misunderstanding.

Join Kaiser Fung, data visualisation expert and author of Numbersense, for a complimentary seminar on how to use linked dynamic graphics and powerful statistics to explore your data, find and construct a narrative, and interactively share findings in ways colleagues and decision makers can readily understand and act upon.

Through a series of case studies, you will learn to:

• Make effective visual displays.
• Find a story in a raw data set.
• Turn chart-making from a job requirement to a professional advantage.
